    There are cases of people who have survived falls from extreme heights. Some have had faulty parachutes, others fell with some sort of wreckage, and a very few were completely in free fall the entire time. Usually there is something that has broken their fall at the last second, decreasing the speed just enough for them to survive. Many of their accounts can be found at this website:

    • That is a great answer but you need to tell if you think that you could or could not survive.
